How does an online community, dominated by privileged parents, discuss its local school system? In a new report titled "We all want what's best for our kids: Discussions of D.C. public school options in an online forum," Brookings researchers examined thousands of messages on the D.C. Urban Moms school discussion forum to find out what they were talking about and how their conversations reflect continued racial segregation in the public schools of the nation's capital. The report is co-authored by Vanessa Williamson, Jackson Gode, and Hao Sun. Williamson, a senior fellow in Governance Studies at Brookings, joins the Cafeteria to discuss the report.
